When the now-legendary Clarisonic first entered the beauty
market the buzz was almost deafening - and despite a pretty big price tag units
just flew out the door. It wasn’t available in New Zealand for quite a long
time, and I tried one overseas but could never really justify the outlay - and
consequently never bought one home.

If you’ve been hankering for a Clarisonic too but can’t
justify the high price for it, then the arrival in New Zealand of the Olay
Regenerist Advanced Cleansing System is most excellent news - it’s the ideal
way to see if brush cleansing system is right for your skin, at about a quarter
(or less) of the price of a Clarisonic!

The Regenerist Advanced Cleansing System is Olay’s
first-ever state-of-the-art electronic cleansing device, which cleanses four
times better and helps your skin absorb over 25 per cent more anti-ageing
ingredients.

Like the Clarisonic and many that followed it, it is designed
to effectively loosen, lift and swirl dirt away to cleanse, exfoliate and
reveal brighter smoother skin with each use. I love the fact that it has a
micro-massaging action that removes even long-lasting, smudge-proof make up,
yet is gentle enough to use every day – even when you have sensitive skin like
mine.

It is great for getting into crevices (for want of a better
word) like the contours around the nose and reportedly cleanses four times
better than basic cleansing, resulting in better active anti-ageing ingredient
penetration so you get that much more out of your nightly skincare regime.

I have found the Olay Advanced Cleansing System to be a lot
gentler on my skin compared to the Clarisonic (especially the Pro version) and
for daily cleansing it is an absolute treat.

If you’re looking for a cleansing device at a very
wallet-friendly price then this is definitely for you, and I love the fact that it is so light and therefore very travel-friendly.

The Olay Regenerist Cleansing System is available now from
leading pharmacies and supermarkets with an RRP of $34.49, and replacement
brush heads are available at RRP $9.99 for a two-piece pack.
